B. Payne, S. MurphyLike a steamboat floatin' in a wild monsoonWoulda' had a better chance to see me throughTails are high and the winds are bearin' downCable touchin' cable, live wires on the groundThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allDiamonds rushing by in a pale gray lightBalck thunder rolling with the crack of steel whiteFever runnin' high, spirit ebbin' lowCaught on the highway with too many mile to goMaladjusted malcontentDeliberate deception with a wounded heartTemptation...Temptation in an empty worldThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allIt's a rumored affairSomething cheap in the airYou been playin' for luckBut you always get caughtDouble rider on a rain streaked roadThunder rippin', engine screamin' northCan't escape a fool in terrorThe kiss of death and now you're goneAnd once again I'm all aloneThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it allThe blues don't tell it all
